The persistent beeping sounds beside me filled the air as I slowly began to wake up. I blinked my eyes open, revealing a sterile setting with white walls. As the beeping grew more intense, I tried to sit up, only to be greeted by a searing pain in my abdomen that elicited an involuntary groan.

So I decided to remain still, scanning the room with my eyes. There, I saw Shane peacefully asleep in Sophia's embrace on a large couch at the foot of my bed. Meanwhile, Austin appeared uncomfortable, dozing off in a chair nearby.

Fighting through the discomfort, I managed to croak, "Hey, Austin... What happened?" Since he was the lightest sleeper, I hoped to catch his attention first.

I wondered where I was as I tried to wake up Austin, who seemed fast asleep. My eyes searched the room for clues, and when my mind became clearer, I realized I was in a hospital. But the question remained: why was I here?

I called out for Sophia, and her eyes opened instantly, locking onto me. Tears welled up as

    BROKEN: having given up all hope. I walked into the main school building, taking deep breaths to calm myself down. It's been six months since I last saw my bullies, Dylan Thompson, James Sanders, and Tom Miller. I'd always wondered why they despised me; I'd never done anything wrong, I'd always stayed in the shadows, never drawing attention to myself, but it was never enough for some reason they loved making my life in high school a living hell.Because they had remodelled the school while we were on vacation, finding my locker proved more difficult than I had anticipated. But I eventually found it with only a few minutes before homeroom to get my bearings. As I walked towards the class where the semester's homeroom would be held, I decided to read my schedule. Unfortunately, I discovered that Mr Hunter would be my homeroom teacher, and he was a complete asshole.It had to be Mr Hunter out of all the teachers they could give me; I'd rather have Mr Gordon, who is a known pervert who t

    Without thinking, I took off running, but it was pointless because they caught up to me. Dylan pulled me by my hair into the closest empty classroom, followed by Tom and James, and no matter how loud I screamed, no one came to help.I was knocked to the ground by Dylan, who then pulled up my hood and tank top while James and Tom held me down. However, because I was screaming, he first stuffed my face towel in my mouth. Unable to move, I watched in horror as he removed the lit cigarette from Tom's mouth and drew it dangerously close to my skin, where I could feel the stub's heat. I tried to get free but they held on even tighter, pushing me to the ground. Dylan then placed the cigarette stub against my skin; I screamed but my screams were muffled by the towel in my mouth. He moved the stub from one spot to another on my abdomen; I cried because that was all I could do. This torture continued for another ten minutes before they finally released me.The boys just laughed their asses off

    Shane was dozing off in the back seat; I couldn't blame him; we'd been through a lot in the last few years. Our parents passed away four years ago. I'll never forget that evening. Even now, I have nightmares about the night I almost lost Shane, the person I loved the most in this world. That unfortunate night was a Saturday, so I went to the Void, an underground fighting arena, to get cash for groceries. I was about to enter the ring when Ripper, a friend of mine, ran in and told me that I had received a call from the hospital informing me that my family had been involved in a car accident.I got out of there as quickly as I could after Ripper offered to cover my match for me, so I got into my truck and drove as fast as I could to the hospital mentioned on the phone. When I arrived at the hospital, I introduced myself to the nurse behind the waiting room counter, who gave me a pitying look before directing me to the doctor in charge."Hello, my name is Dr Patel, and I'm sorry but we

    So, while looking for places outside of Mikey's radar, I discovered a small town called Anwood, where their high school had a basketball scholarship for me and their junior school was ideal for Shane and their fees were reasonable.I sold the house Uncle George left us and left New York a week after we received the necessary documents for our new life in Anwood, with enough money in my bank account to last us until we got settled and I found a job in Anwood.Shane didn't ask many questions about why we were leaving New York because he liked the idea of moving to a new town. I guess New York held a lot of painful memories for him and me, so we'd just like to leave everything behind and start over in Anwood, where no one knows who we are.Present day…I unloaded our belongings from the car before waking Shane. We then proceed to ask the woman standing outside the building for directions to the superintendent's office. Based on her casual attire and the fact that she was smoking in front

    I got up a little early and decided to go for a run because I couldn't sleep, which wasn't a new problem for me because living with my parents wasn't always peaceful; it got to the point where I rarely slept at night if they were around. So I changed into my running clothes, checked on Shane to make sure he was still asleep so he wouldn't wake up and notice I was gone, and when I was certain he was sound asleep I quietly left the apartment, gently locked the door with my keys, and then I made my way to reception. When I got outside, I stretched for a few minutes, then jogged for a few minutes before picking up my pace and starting running while reminiscing about our lives with my parents.*Flashback*I woke up to find my father was standing over me, looking down at me with an angry expression on his face. I wasn't surprised by this because it was his usual expression. What had made him so upset that he had to enter my room without asking after I had specifically told them not to do t

    I couldn't believe I was going to the same school as her. I was excited to see her again, but I didn't show it. I sat beside her and said nothing while listening to Mr Hunter's announcements, but after a few minutes of talking rubbish, he left, and then some idiot said something rude from the back of the class"Are you deaf, or do you simply choose not to speak?" The idiot asked mockingly, causing his friends to laugh, but I didn't even acknowledge him, let alone answer his question; instead, I pulled out pride and prejudice and began reading, ignoring everyone around me, but I caught my little waitress sneaking glances at me, which made me feel quite smug.Then I heard footsteps behind me and turned to see some guys standing beside my table."You know it's rude to ignore people, new kid," the guy said, and I recognized his voice; it was the idiot from before, so I didn't bother looking up and acknowledging him or his friends.But then he grabbed my book, ripping it slightly before tos

    Weeks have passed, and my silent partner has continued to sit next to me without saying a word. It's as if we have an unspoken agreement between us; ever since he arrived, he has only ever sat next to me. He enters the classroom, sits down, and plugs in his earphones until the teacher enters. I've tried to talk to him, but I can't seem to work up the courage.Last week, the teacher assigned us a task that required us to write a brief poem about anything we wanted and present it in front of the entire class, which was worth a lot of points. The presentations were one aspect of English that I disliked. When I have to speak in front of people, I get nervous, and when I get nervous, I get sick.Everyone took turns giving their presentations until Leo and I were the only two left. I went first, blocking out everything as the words came to me; my poem was about my life and all the pain I'm going through."I am fear and pain, I wonder if those are all I feel, I hear the voices in my head yell

    Mr. Olsen, the English teacher, assigned us a poem as an assignment that we were to present in front of the class. I didn't like giving presentations; it wasn't that I was afraid of being on stage; I just don't like talking in front of people. Mr Olsen listened as everyone took turns reciting their poem aloud, Dylan and his friends didn't bother doing the assignment, I never liked guys like them because they think because they are rich, they can do whatever they want, it pisses me off.Athena and I were the last to present, so she took the stage first. She stood up and walked to the front of the class, holding her poem. I noticed that her gaze never left the ground as she began reading her poem to the class.I just stared at her when she was finished because I knew that poem meant a lot to her because I could see it in her eyes. She looked up and around the classroom, observing her classmates' expressions. Then that idiot fucker had to open his mouth and ruin her moment."Way to make e

    An hour ago.."Hello little mouse, it was so easy to get you up here, all I had to do was take that morons phone and text you, and you came running to him without any questions asked," Dylan said, his breath fanning my neck as I attempted to remain still so he wouldn't notice how afraid I was."Where is Leo? If you don't let me go, I'm going to scream bloody murder," I managed to say, but my trembling voice betrayed me, showing my fear."Oh, don't worry about him, little mouse; after all, when his old friend is finished with him, your boyfriend will wish he hadn't crossed me," Dylan said, and I could tell he was smiling."What are you talking about? You sick fuck, where is Leo?" I cursed, causing his hold on my shoulders to tighten."If he ignored you like everyone else and minded his own fucking business maybe you wouldn't have even thought of fighting back then and now" "Shut up! You're sick, you made my life miserable" "Ever since he arrived, you have been acting like you own the

    The semester was finally over, and I couldn't wait for the holidays, so I could spend time with Athena and the guys at her uncle's ski resort in Mount Everett, where we will be having the time of our lives. But I think her uncle had ulterior motives when he invited us to spend the holiday there because Athena told us he wanted to meet with Austin, Shane, and me to find out who she has been hanging out with. I don't blame him; Athena was wonderfully kind and easy to take advantage of; she sees the good in everyone even if there isn't. The year wasn't perfect, but it provided me with the opportunity to meet Athena, Sophia, and Austin, the most important people in my life after Shane.They have made my life more enjoyable than it was when we lived in New York. Shane is always cheerful when they are around, which makes me glad because he was a totally different kid when my parents were still alive, sad, and closed off from everyone but me.With Athena and his overprotective elder broth

    It's surprising that it's already the end of the school year, and I've done so many things in the last few months that I'm proud of that I've done my entire life. I stood up to my bullies and am now secure in my own skin, no longer frightened to go around school.All of this was made possible by the new additions to my small family; I don't think I would have had the confidence to do all of this without them, they were my knights in shining armor and I love them to the moon and backAs usual, the end-of-the-year basketball game was held in Anwood, so I dressed up in the team colours of blue and black because Leo was playing today, and I wanted to support him in some way.It was his first official game in Riverview, and I wanted it to go well, so I was hoping they would win because It's a very important game of his high school basketball career and given how nervous he's been about it, I wanted to show him that I cared."You guys act like you'd die if you didn't see each other every day

    "I'm going to scream Dylan, let me go right now," I pleaded, my voice shaking with terror. "Go on, no one is going to hear you, Austin isn't around and lover boy is a little busy with James and Tom, so it's just you and me, little mouse" Dylan said, taking small steps towards me, I took steps backwards till my back met the wall, then he caged me with his hands when I tried to run, "Get away from me, you sick bastard," I yelled, my gaze darting around the room, trying to find a way out of here."Has lover boy fucked you yet? I'm sure he has, I know I would have; I told you at the beginning of the year that you were mine, but you still let that idiot touch you, and that pisses me off" Dylan said, anger evident in his tone as he stared at me."Fuck you!""I'm upset little mouse and you won't like me when I'm mad,." Dylan murmured his hands slid to my neck, his enraged gaze never leaving mine as he wrapped his hands securely around my neck squeezing tightly. I struggled against him, but

Stephen was sitting in one of the dining chairs, while Sophia was cooking breakfast in front of the stove, giggling at something he said."Hey guys," I murmured as I took a seat next to Stephen, who was eating an apple. How ironic."How are you, Athena? It's been a while," Stephen said, smiling. "Good and you?""I'm doing well, how is school?" "Good, I guess. How is work?" "Good, I guess," Stephen said, repeat

    I kept the letter a secret from Leo because it wasn't important, and telling him would only add to his worries, so I tore it up and soaked it in water before throwing it away.Even if the letter was gone, what Ford mentioned in the letter was still bothering me; what did he mean when he said Dalton was no longer a problem? I was buried in my thoughts as I glanced out the window when the door creaked open and Detective Adams and Sloan entered the room; judging by their demeanour, I knew something was wrong."Let's talk in the waiting room," I said as I exited my mother's ward and made my way to the waiting area, detectives Adams and Sloan following close behind, we took our seats in the corner of the waiting room, before Detective Adams started speaking."Austin," Detective Adams began, her voice kind yet solemn. "We have received an update on the case."My heart skipped a beat as I focused my attention on her. "What is it?"Detective Adams exchanged a glance with Sloan before continu

When I opened the door, there stood Nurse Sam on the other side, with a small smile on her face."Hey Leo, how are you?" Nurse Sam asked, her worried gaze fixed on me."I'm fine, nurse Sam, just a little tired," I answered"You need to get some rest before you crash. Don't make me sedate you, Leo,""I promise, Nurse Sam, I will; what brings you here?""Oh, I almost forgot, there are some detectives in the waiting room who said they want to see you.""Oh, what are their names?""I believe they said their names were Sloan and Adams; I wonder what they want?" Because they don't look like locals,""You and me both, Nurse Sam, thanks, I'll go see them now.""No problem, kid, let me get back to work and remember to get some sleep," she said as she walked away, leaving me to my thoughts.What do they
